Elias J. TV or Elias Linucan Jr., in real life, is facing complaints from his manager, Beverly Pumicpic Labadlabad, for estafa and breach of contract.
This is allegedly due to unpaid commissions and accepting shows by the singer and his bandmates without the knowledge and permission of those in charge of their singing careers.
The amount of money Elias TV owed.
Elias TV, a renowned reggae singer and social media influencer hailing from Mindanao, has garnered immense popularity.
“Nag-bypass kasi sila. Two weeks na silang nag-direct collect sa client, Hindi po sila allowed mag-collect. saka walang turnover na pera si Elias sa management,” Labadlabad stated.
In the list provided by Labadlabad, the amount of money owed by Elias to the management was PHP1.7 million.
Elias and Beverly’s talent-manager relationship started on April 2, 2025.
However, their once-harmonious relationship deteriorated due to a rift, as Beverly revealed that Abegail Cariquitan, Elias’s live-in partner, harbored jealousy towards her.
On July 10, 2025, Elias’s guest appearance on Fast Talk with Boy Abunda was canceled.

Labadlabad revealed that the singer failed to board the plane because, allegedly, Abegail (Elias live-in partner) prevented him from leaving their hometown in Mindanao.
Prior to Elias’s canceled guest appearance on Boy Abunda’s program, he also missed his interview with ABS-CBN.
Labadlabad is scheduled to file a case against Elias in a Manila court next week.
In the Philippines, a breach of contract occurs when one party fails to fulfill their obligations as outlined in an agreement, regardless of whether the contract is written, oral, or implied by law.
The Civil Code of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 386) primarily governs this aspect of contract law.
